• Commented on Review: GP2X Wiz runs retrogaming rings around mainstream rivals
  The folks who I've chatted with say it's got great performance, but at the cost of battery life. I own a Dingoo A320, which is the budget contender with the GP2X Wiz. If I had to do it all again...

  I see where they're going with it, but it's too big to be practical. Cool design and all, though. That I agree with. Honestly, with a little skill you can run a USB extension cable into a cart body and...

• Commented on Yes, the Fit PC 2 is tiny
  I'd love to play with one to see how it stacks up against my MSI Wind Barebones. Mini SD because the unpopular hardware is (probably) HELLA cheap to buy and smaller than standard SD. (You just stick the end user...

  Agreed with #1 My i910 Omnia rocks as a hotspot or over USB sharing it's connection. -either way. Heck, after installing Resco Pocket Radio last night I'm ready to ditch my Sirius Radio too. I'm ready to get the most...

  My guess is that the barrel looks like that because it has to, or so my imagination told me: The original Florrtex barrels broke down when in close proximity to the beam over time. The newer Monatomic barrels are silver...
